VII

Outlasts, too well! For of the hearts that know thee

Few know or dare to stand

On thy keen chilling heights; but where below thee

Thy lavish hand

Has scattered brilliant jewels of summer song

And flowers of passionate speech, there grope the throng

Crying--"Behold! this bauble, this is he!"

And of their love or hate, the foolish wars

Echo up faintly where amid lone stars

Thy soul may be.
